| anxiety for fresh business. In these cases

! prices. some export yarn buyers are dis
POSED to purchase more freely. but fun rates
! prevent them from doing so. Some manufac-
! turers, In view of tine difficulty Of selling
| cloth, are not disposed to purchase yarns eX-
| cept cd cheap lots. Finer counts made from
| Egyptian cotton are dearer. Two folds are
| also dearer. In the clOlh market there is
| much COMPLAINT OF difficulty OF selling. es-
